Summary: A.I.D.S. Victim Jailed (Press, 29 November 1988)
In a notable legal case in Prague, a municipal court has sentenced a 26-year-old man to five years in prison for continuing to engage in sexual relations after being diagnosed with AIDS. The courts initially sentenced him to three years in October 1988, but upon appeal, they added an additional two years. This man, who was reported as the first known victim of AIDS in Czechoslovakia after testing positive in December 1986, was said to have had sexual relations with 16 partners without using protection, specifically condoms. According to reports from "Slobodne Slovo," the man expressed that he refrained from using condoms due to a fear of losing his partners. This case has drawn attention to issues related to public health and personal responsibility regarding sexually transmitted diseases.
